Beautiful View

Nice house with beautiful view and a clear pool nearby. All amenities were as indicated on the website. Our family liked it so much.

Awesome memories made in Siesta Key
5/5 stars
Just returned from a week in Siesta Key and we will be back. This condo and complex was perfect for us. I traveled with my college aged kids and they loved it! Check in was super simple and condo was ready as promised. Best of both worlds as we were a short walk to private beach and had access to beautiful spot on the bay. My 23 yo son loves to fish and was thrilled to see 2 rods in the garage. He caught a variety of saltwater fish which was exciting as we are from WI. Pools were nice and not crowded…especially the small one which we used as it was close. Bathroom at pool was really nice and clean. Could go on and on…can’t wait to go back.

Five ⭐️
5/5 stars
Perfect location, right in the middle of the Village and Stickney Point! Loved that our unit was right next to the smaller (less crowded) pool! Accommodations were excellent, everything we needed and more. So quiet, even though you’re right next to the main road — very convenient. We loved our two week stay and would come back for sure!! Thank you!!

Everything We Needed to Make Our Stay Wonderful

We had a great time! We came to visit our son who lives here & wanted to be near the beach. We spent lots of time on the beach enjoying time with family. The condo had everything we needed to make our stay wonderful.

Some reviews stated this was the first unit inside gate as if it was an issue, but that is what we liked about it. First toward beach and easy to find for guest. Road noise was not a concern.

Pristinely Clean and Well Appointed

The condo was pristinely clean and well appointed. It was a lovely location, convenient to a crosswalk & trolley stop, and very quiet. We often had the small pool to ourselves. The owners thought of everything!

Perfect Holiday Home
5/5 stars
We were lucky enough to secure this beautiful house for our holiday and were completely blown away by the quality of the accommodation. All ages and needs are catered for in this very comfortable holiday home which offers privacy and easy access. The location is perfect, being a few steps from one of the two private pools, and a short walk to the award winning main beach. The free Taxis's allow easy access to the bars and restaurants and other beaches that are a little further away. I enjoyed watching the wildlife on the Intra Coastal Waterway, a short walk through the development, and was delighted to see dolphins feeding and playing. The perfect end to a perfect holiday. I highly recommend this property.
